Izakaya Sensu - Metro Manila

We decided to eat here because my friend loves Japanese and its her birthday. The restaurant was nice, it is well lit and it smells nice. The staff was really helpful and all smiles. The food, well its 50-50 for us. What we like are the Aburi Uni Roll, which is in the board special, and the Japanese fried rice. Both was really nice, prepared/cooked/seasoned really well. And their house tea was really good. ???????? What we don't like is the Tempura platter (we mentioned this to the staff) its seems that the oil they used is old. It taste funny and definitely not worth the 475pesos. The Yakitori Omakase 7, we only like the Enoki Mushroom, Cherry tomato and Garlic with Chicken Skin. The other sticks didn't excite us. ???? After dinner, I asked my friend if she will come back, she said probably not. And just to note we ended up getting some ice cream elsewhere so that we can end the night with a smile.

We decided to order the Sensu Roll (P575) and two orders of Salmon Skin Rolls (P160) for sharing and just add whatever we wanted for ourselves. I decided to get the Sensu Kawari Kusi 5 (P195). The Sensu Roll consists of twelve rolls. 6 rolls of tempura asparagus & spicy mayonnaise topped with spicy tuna, green chili and unagi sauce. Then 6 rolls of crabmeat mayonnaise, yuzu skin & cucumber topped with mango, flying fish roe & unagi sauce. I was only able to taste the crabmeat roll since I'm allergic to shrimp. It was good. I'm really not a big fan of sushi but I really liked it. The salmon skin rolls were good too! But my favorite were the chicken breasts! They were really good!!! ❤️ They were really flavorful and not dry at all. One was with Cheese, one was with Pink Cod Roe & Mayonnaise, one was with Wasabi, one was with Japanese Plum & Shiso Leaf then one was with Sichimi Chili Mayonnaise. I loved all of them but the two that stood out were the Pink Cod Roe & Chili! ???????? Overall, it was a great experience. I will definitely come back. ????????

I was invited for sneak preview yesterday for the #unagifestival. It was my first time eating unagi (eel) and it was surprisingly good ???? Interior was gorgeous and spacious. Everything that was served to us tasted good! Specially the Unagi Tempura! I guess we Filipinos really love our deep fried tempura ???? Their Uzaku was really refreshing and surprisingly I loved the combination of unagi and cucumber (I normally don't eat them). Oh and did you know that the unagi or eel, was butchered the same day? Yup talk about freshness! Visit Izakaya Sensu at the Ground floor of Net Park in BGC! Their unagi menu will be available until September! :)
